• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

It's tax season. So I thought I would make a thread celebrating (or dreading) the occasion. Are you paying or getting back? This thread is for the discussion of taxes. And here's a Beatles song.

I'll be getting back as I always do. I claim 0 to be sure I get money back.

Although, there is a new form and my job wants us to fill out the new one, the government says we do not have to fill the new one out if there is no change from 2019 and you've been with the company since before Jan 1, 2020.

I owe a LOT of money this year. A whole LOT.

Inheritance tax, property gains from selling my Dad's house after he passed away, and the first year I've had taxable income in almost a decade.

It's taken out of pay before it even hits your bank here. Can't imagine having to do my own taxes, too stressful!

Ours is taken out as well, but that's not enough. No, no...we have to go through and refigure all the taxes, because...doing it right the first time just wouldn't be very American (said with sarcasm)

I will be getting money back but that is only because I have had too much withheld. Job changes, kids graduating from college, and medical leave made it impossible to determine what was the correct amount to have them withhold.

Tax amount that we each owe is the same whether or not you get anything back from overpaying.
